He is either

a) extremely passionate about the idea that we have no free will

b) loves the paychecks that arrive after appearing on podcasts and selling books

c) is compelled to do all these things because he has no free will

I agree with him on the notion that we have no 'free will' to speak of. In the end, we are just physical beings that must operate according to cause and effect, whether we are 'compelled' or not.

Sound depressing, but that gives us incredible freedom to investigate causes of human misery and correct them.

Does this come down to the fact that you don't like the topic of his book? As you have said elsewhere that you're not going to criticize someone for wanting to make money.

Hacker News put a delay on my response to you because it thought we were arguing so I responded to user afpx. Yes, you're right. I vehemently disagree with him.
